How To Perform Search Engine Ranking Analysis

I like to keep it very simple here. I don’t bother using any fancy tools or determining the exact position of my prospect’s website in Google for various keywords. I don’t look at quality scores, determine number of backlinks to my prospect’s site or any of that.

search engine ranking analysis

Here’s what I do:

I use Google’s keyword tool to research at least 3 keywords potential customers are using to search for my prospect in Google every month. I start my search engine ranking analysis by showing these keywords in the keyword tool and highlight the monthly search volume for each of these keywords. So for example, let’s say our prospect is a plumber in Portland. I would search for keywords in Google’s keyword tool such as plumber Portland, plumbing Portland, Portland plumber, Portland plumbing, etc….I think you get the idea.

After showcasing the keywords and search volumes to our prospect, we then head over to Google and search several of these keywords one-by-one, to see if our prospect is ranked anywhere on the first page of search results (website, Google places/local listing, video etc.. All we care about is whether or not our prospect is ranked on page 1 for each respective keyword. If not they are essentially invisible online.

Be sure to drive home the point that 80% of the time people NEVER look beyond the first page of search results for any given search…and this includes local businesses. That’s why a first page ranking is so crucial.

**Powerful Tip**: When performing the ranking analysis, make sure to notice if one of your prospect’s competitors is ranking on the first page of Google for multiple keywords. Businesses HATE the thought that one of their competitors has the upper hand and is beating them repeatedly. This can be a very strong motivational factor.

Pitching Your Services:

I like to do a soft pitch of my services at the very end of my videos once you have finished your critique and analysis, and this is what I recommend you do too. Since it is part of your video, it is guaranteed that your prospect will watch it, and is more effective than making your pitch separately at a later time.

      Wordtracker tool is totally different from Google keyword tool as we are concentrating on Google search engine we can start providing articles on it which also helps you to generate more income on Adsense

  2. I work only with two key word phrases of two words each and get them at the top of Google, beyond that, I use the long tail method with 10 -12 different words that can benefit customers. All these words I mix in different anchor texts and get a good result.
